The place was clean. Had very limited wifi, which is a good thing. Kids had fun in the lake and on the kayaks. Laundry, board games, and other activities are available. The only negative thing I can say is that the bed mattresses are very uncomfortable.Overall, we all enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

This is a terrific property. And it’s close to a number of interesting things to go visit. But just hanging out at their lake around the fire was also wonderful.

The grounds were nice and easy to find
Overall it was a nice quant place and easy to access. It was about 45 minutes from Michigan Tech which made it easy to drop my student off. The mattresses left a little to be desired we kept rolling into the middle making it difficult for 2 people to sleep. Not sure if a foam mattress would be a better solution.
